"The roaming rates had already been reduced in February for our customers. Now, we have taken a step further by reducing roaming rates to as low as 40ps per minute on select plans. This should add real value to those customers, who have a need for travelling across the nation", he added.

Mr Shukla said a significant feature of this rate reduction has been on Incoming Calls while roaming, which was reduced from Re 1.75 per minute to Re one per minute.
